Lexington police are investigating alleged ticket fraud after one University of Kentucky basketball fan filed a complaint saying she was sold fake tickets - with others claiming the same via social media - to the Wildcats' game Tuesday night against Texas A&M at Rupp Arena.

Sherrelle Roberts, a police spokesperson, said the only fan who has filed an official report bought "what she thought were legitimate Kentucky basketball tickets" on the secondary market but was turned away at the game, informed that she'd been duped. She might not have been alone.
